Humanity has gone through sort of a 'trial-and-error' process when it comes to developing legal systems, but how far have we really come since the laws of the Ancients? On the latest episode of 4-Thirty, Ben and Pat travel back in time to analyze some of the strangest and most impractical laws put in place by our ancestors, while also covering a handful of unimportant news stories and anecdotes. Could the 'Draconian Code' be instituted in America? Should a person's height be taken into consideration while determining criminal culpability? Who really robbed Greta Thunberg of her childhood? For answers to these questions and many, many more, be sure to give this episode a listen!
